Key clinical point: Patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) experienced a slowing of radiographic progression during treatment with etanercept.
Major finding: In patients with available pre-etanercept radiographic data, the annualized radiographic progression was significantly lower with etanercept during the first 18 months than during the pre-etanercept treatment period (P < .005), and a higher proportion of patients showed no progression during etanercept treatment (61.7%) than during the pre-etanercept period (55.3%).
Study details: Findings are from a real-world, noninterventional study including 1821 participants who started treatment with etanercept, of which 1378 patients had rheumatoid arthritis and 440 patients had PsA.
Disclosures: This study was funded by Pfizer. Five authors declared being current or former employees of Pfizer, and the other authors reported ties with several sources, including Pfizer.
